It is said that our star signs decide our personalities,habits, relationships and careers. But recent research shows that our star signs also decide our personal style of dress.
People whose star sign is Aries(白羊座) are leaders in fashion and clothing. They have a good taste but can sometimes look crazy in what they wear. They prefer bold style to draw others' attention to them. For men, narrow trousers with traditional white shirts would certainly look great and can improve their confidence.
Taureans(金牛座人) buy the most expensive clothes but would still keep their old clothes. They generally have strong bodies. Men certainly look handsome in breasted(双排suits. For women, they should avoid wearing extra large clothes to make them look thin.
Cancerians(巨蟹座人) dress up according to their moods. With the change of their moods, their choice and liking may change, too. They like to wear in bright colors when in a happy mood. Men may feel comfortable in jeans and cotton shirts for informal wear. For women, the main aim would be to create magic by blending(混合) fabrics such as silk and cotton.
